Having recently received a few enquiries on how to post pictures on the forum I have decided to post this "quick-guide". First two important points to remember: 1. Picture content: The forum administrators have made it known that no pornographic, unsuitable or copyrighted images, cartoons or gif animations should be posted on the site-failure to comply with this could result in expulsion from the forum. 2. You cannot (at the moment) cut/copy and paste directly from your Pc. I advise joining an on-line "imagestation" like Photobucket or Sony Imagestation. Photobucket accepts Gif animation uploads whereas Sony only permits Jpegs. For the purpose of this guide I will describe posting images using Photobucket. Photobucket : http://photobucket.com/ - http://photobucket.com/ is free to join and remains free if you only want to use up to 50 mb of storage space (about 200 average photos and Gifs).Fill in the registration form and away you go. Images From Your Computer: In the "Your" Album area of Photobucket click "browse" and select the image you want to upload from the folder on your PC.Click submit and after a short while (depending on you connection speed) the image will appear in the "album." Beneath the image you will see 'URL', 'TAG' and 'IMAGE'.Click in the box next to URl and it will highlight in blue. Right-Click and click "copy". Next we are going to post the image on the forum. In the 'Post Reply' box click this button: javascript openWin'RTE_image_window.asp','insertImg','toolbar=0,location=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=0,resizable=0,width=400,height=200'"> Images From The Web: To post an image from the web right-click the image and click 'properties'. Find the text that says 'Address URL' and highlight the address starting "http:" (double left-click and it will turn blue) right-click and click 'copy.' You can also put these web images in Photobucket by clicking "[ Add pictures from URL ] " in the Add Pictures area of "Your Album" This is by no means the definitive way to do this and some pictures on the web will copy and paste directly into the forum.It is, however, the way I do it and it works for me.
-------------

. An 'Insert Image' box appears. Click in the 'Image URL' box and clear the contents.Right-click and click 'paste' and the address of the image (which you copied in Photobucket) will appear. Click 'OK' and the image should appear in the box.

For the record, the dog is not mine, he's named Inca, and he was brought along by two members of a small walking team I hooked up with to do a charity walk across Dartmoor in 2003. That picture cracks me up every time I look at it - but I'll remember to scale them down in future - this site only has so much capacity after all! |

Actually it looked like one that wasn't much use for anything! So Jim, why did you pull your organ picture?

Damn - don't you just hate it when you think you've got away with exposing your organ with nobody noticing, then everyone starts to laugh and point......
Reed, you must have been quick off the mark, it was only there for a minute or so - not a good picture, that's why I got rid of it (what?!?  Quality control on The Archive, whatever next?) - I promise to get a better piccie, and show it with pride!-------------

In my country when you join with an ISP most of them give you your own
web space for creating home pages etc. This can also be used as a valid
URL. It is usually in the form of www.yourISPhostname.com/~yourusername/
. Don't forget the tilde- very important on linux servers. Any images
can be uploaded into this web space and linked in the same manner as
described above. Check out your ISP (Internet Service Provider) and see
whether you have this feature available. It must also be mentioned that playing with images for use on the internet involves understanding how things work. Make sure you know, or find out, how to compress them. Nobody is going to wait around for twenty minutes to see the latest picture of your mother. |
